The Granny's Rest

[Daisy]

I think it is only right and proper that we should welcome Oma's new-born GG nephew into the world with a wee dram or two.

It's quite late, so I'll have a small brandy, or if someone twists my arm a large one, and some olives, please bar person.

[Plantaholic]

I missed you yesterday evening but will raise a glass to the newborn.

[Daisy]

Plant - it's never too late or too early to raise a glass to a new baby.

[Gemini]

I have just rescued this little guy who was 'helping' put up the decorations. The staff didn't seem too pleased

I'll have a glass of Merlot before I take him away.

[Daisy]

Gem, he looks as though he was enjoying playing with the tinsel - I hope they're not too cross with him!

I'll have a Scotch and American to warm me up on this cold, cold evening.

[Gemini]

I never made it here last night!
I have just called in to check the decs though and very lovely they look. I'm glad to see mulled wine is back on the menu too

[Daisy]

It looks bright and festive, Gem. Perfect to get us in the mood!

Being as it's December, I don't think it's too early to start on the mulled wine. Perhaps I'll try a couple of those delicious-looking appetisers as well.

[Gemini]

I'm here for a mulled wine or two before I watch the Strictly final

[Daisy]

I think the mulled wine is especially good this year! Cheers, Gem.

[Gemini]

I collected my Christmas present from the Tea Rooms, and am having a Christmas Eve drink in here as I pass

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!

[Daisy]

Thank you Gem.

We did all get a bit merry, didn't we!

[Gemini]

Just popping in for a quick Bucks Fizz before my family arrive

Cheers!

[Daisy]

You're still here, Gem? I'll join you in a Bucks Fizz, please.

[Gemini]

The Granny's Arms has had a makeover!

Free drinks and a buffet tonight to welcome us back

I'll have glass of Sauvignon blanc and a selection from the buffet.

[Daisy]

It looks fabulous, Gem. Well done to everyone. We seem to have been very modest imbibers during Covid, but perhaps it's now time to live a little!


I like the Martini Bar in the Snug. I think I'll have a vodka martini (I used to love this years ago) and just some light snacks from the buffet.
